What is the difference in recoil between the Beretta Xtrema2 and the Teknys Gold and other AL391 Shotguns?
Phil E asked:
I am looking at purchasing a new semi-auto shotgun for skeet and dove. I am extremely interested in the Xtrema2 because of its non-existant recoil and rapid rate of fire. My question is…what is the difference between that shotgun and the other AL391’s such as the Teknys Gold? Will I still get the same quality recoil reduction and rate of fire? Thanks!

Well i have shot witht the xtrema2 though unfortunatley i have no knowledge of the other.
What i can say is the extrema really impressed me and really has next to no recoil.
There is a video on youtube of the extrema in action if you care to take a look, just typ in berretta extrema2
Some of my friends had the Extrema2, which got me interested in autoloading shotguns unfortunately, lol.
Since my friends had all Beretta’s, I went in search of another gun. I finally found one, the Winchester Super X3 (Commonly called the Winchester SX3) The SX3 was way much better than the Extrema 2 all over. Much less recoil, way better handling, and it swung a heck of a lot better too.
The Extrema 2 weighs 7 pounds 8 ounces. My SX3 weighs only 6 pounds 6 ounces. Thats a pound and 2 ounce difference! In the field it made a really BIG difference.
